As the income gap in the U.S. widens, so too does the “justice gap” that prevents millions of Americans from being able to afford legal representation. Seaside Legal Services offers a lifeline to those in need by offering its services free of charge.

Seaside Legal Services is an Orange County nonprofit public interest law firm that provides professional legal help free of charge to people who cannot afford counsel.

Why free legal aid?

In criminal cases, the accused is provided with a public defender. In civil cases, it’s every man (or woman) for himself – Seaside Legal Services seeks to level that playing field by providing top-notch legal help to the citizens of south Orange County – free of charge.

Can we help you?

If you need legal help but cannot afford to hire a lawyer, we may be able to help you if you meet the financial qualifications for free legal services. Please fill out and email this form so we can get started on your case or offer a referral.
